Corneel and Magtel

We had lunch today with Corneel and Magtel. Quite a story there, They would love to get married but Magtel's ex husband has been stalking her and and doing some very scary things that have caused a ton of problems for them. They are finally getting some help from the courts and hopefully things will get better for them. There is an eight year old and a 12 years old in the middle of this and it has been very stressful for them as well. Corneel and Magtel have had the missionaries come for a long time and I believe they are ready to be baptized but are so involved with all this mess that they can not even see straight. The ward has been great at showing their support and many of the members are praying for them also. We keep hoping that things will finally come to a head. Corneel has a muscle disease that had him in a wheelchair most of the time. A couple of weeks ago he was given a priesthood blessing and he is now walking without even using a crutch. He goes very slowly and is pretty shaky but is able to get around.
